Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS) Market - Growth and Forecasts | 2022

Global acrylonitrile butadiene styrene market is expected to reach USD 34.88 billion by 2022, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Rising government funding for large-scale infrastructure projects in Asian countries of China, India, and Indonesia is expected to propel construction industry growth which in turn is expected to have a positive impact on product demand over the next seven years. 

Increasing need for light weight automobiles on account of need for better fuel efficiency particularly in developed regions including Europe and North America is expected to be a major market driver. 

Rising investments for innovative product developments and high-quality manufacturing processes, is expected to augment industry growth over the forecast period. Furthermore, strong economic growth coupled with removal of barriers for foreign investments in India is expected to spur construction sector which in turn will propel product demand over the forecast period. 

Countries including India, China and Japan are expected to witness considerable growth in light of expanding product manufacturing base. However, raw material price volatility and availability of numerous biodegradable substitutes is expected to challenge the industry over the next seven years.
